definition for: #JusticeForCoyote

An international call for justice for falsely accused Francis "Coyote" Shivers in the Pauley Perrette "Star Crazy" scandal, dubbed by civil rights organizations as "the worst case of Restraining Order abuse in California State history". #JusticeForCoyote is related to #WeSupportCoyote which trended on June 10, 2014, peaking at #6 worldwide, ironically, this took place while Shivers was in court defending First Amendment rights to speak publicly about the case, and prosecutor Elizabeth Gertz, implicated in the scandal, attempted to gag Shivers and incarcerate him in an attempt to stifle public debate. Shivers prevailed at the hearing, in which the "growing online worldwide coalition" hashtagging to expose the truth in this case became the subject of the hearing itself. #FreeCoyoteShivers trended worldwide during the May 1, 2014 hearing in the same case, peaking at #2 worldwide, and #JusticeForCoyoteShivers trended three times worldwide on May 19, 2014.
